Wader studs?

I've just ordered some wader studs from Sportfish! Not just for my waders but I intend to try them in my walking boots too! They are relatively cheap at less then £5.00 for 30 studs plus p & P. I am fed up with sliding and slipping about in my walking boots so I'm going to try them and see what happens.

  2. Hi Andrew

    Have you had your studs from sportfish. I hope you have better luck with them than i did. After using my waders twice they fell out.

  3. Nick - I've used these for years and have found them to be pretty reliable. You do need to screw them in tight and I guess you will have the odd one that manages to escape but on the whole I find them quite good. I've even screwed some into my walking boots now so I will see how I get on with them in theses!

  4. I have also used these in the heel of my boots and have only lost a couple. I drill a small diameter pilot hole and screw the studs in with araldite. Proper job!!

  5. Rod - I don't even drill a hole or use glue but they still seem to hold!
